The New Jersey Devils flipped the script on their annual Dads Trip this season and invited all of the players’ mothers for a vacation with their boys. That means that instead of DancingLars, former Capital Marcus Johansson has been reunited with his mother Gunilla.

Saturday, the Devils players and their mothers posed together in an adorable photo together at Nationwide Arena.

The Devils labeled each of the players’ lockers with their Mom’s name.

This is the first time Mama and son have been spotted together in NHL media since Johansson was drafted in 2009. Mama Jo, overwhelmed with happiness, gave her son a big smooch after he was drafted by then Caps GM George McPhee.

The sad part is Mom likely won’t see Marcus play. The Swedish forward is currently out injured with his second documented concussion of the season. He suffered the injury after a flagrant elbow by Bruins forward Brad Marchand on January 24 and has not resumed skating yet.

Over the last two seasons, the Devils have gone 2-0-0 during their Dads Trip. Beyond continuing the winning and impressing their moms, Devils players’ had one other extra motivation to play well tonight: the dreaded cannon.

“We haven’t warned them yet,” coach John Hynes also said to Gross. “We’ll probably warn them in the morning, they’ll be in one of our team meetings just to see what goes on with that. Hopefully the cannon doesn’t go off.”
